Countering Islamophobia - PSA on Comcast by USA Channel & ICNA Bay Area

Countering Islamophobia - TV Ads on Comcast

There is no doubt that Islamophobia is at its peak in US. More than ever there is a need to counter the Islam smearing campaign launched by the conservative right. ICNA Bay Area partnered with USA network as part of NBC Universal media group for a month long campaign to promote religious tolerance in US.

Where did you all learn this kind of hate? I have to say, its not very Christian, so I hope it wasn't in Church. You're all talking about how Islam is so cruel, but you're the ones indulging in denigration and stereotyping. In response to a video about tolerance, of all places. Well done.

@towerclimber37 you are one of the most arrogant and disgustig people I have come across "I know your book better than YOU do. I know my book better than you do. YOU FAIL!". The best thing to do with people like you is to leave them alone in their own see of filth so they can choke on it. I am living the Book not you and your stupid comments reveal enough of what you know. Keep your information with yourself and kill yourself. This world will be a better place without bigots like u and taliban.

@towerclimber37 Allah says that War is something that muslims are not to do because it leads to much destruction on earth. War for upkeeping justice and what is right in the face of rampant oppression however is a virute since otherwise even more damage will happen, but many rules are to be followed. Unlike US soldiers that have really ruined many mosques and according to a report even commited orgy inside one, the muslims are forbidden by Islam to harm any place of worship of the nonMuslims.

@towerclimber37 sura 8:12 you say, well it is not talking about you or my nonmuslim ancestors. It is talking about the very specific polythiestic arabs that were waging war on the tiny muslim community to massacre them all. The same applies to your 2:191-193 which is talking about the Battle situation. The arabs tried with all their might to kill and destroy all muslims. They even broke the peace treaty of Hudaibia. The command of killing is given for WAR SITUATION, War is ALWAYS fought this way

@towerclimber37 you are one of those cut paste guys who never knows what they are doing. Cut paste like dumb machine, like a robot. What is the verse 2:191-193 talking about? When was it revealed? what were the circumstances? the scenario? Slay WHO wherever ye find them and when? Drive out WHO wherever ye find them and drive them where? Why was it revealed? What did the muslims do in turn? Why? When? How? "lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful" after all.

@towerclimber37 What I am saying is that Christianity as active religion is not ther anymore. The countries that once sent out crusaders by 10,000s to butcher the heathen/pagan arabs of the middle east (muslims and the Jews and the nonCatholic christians) these countries are now ruled by pure rampant materialism, atheism on the massive scale. The worst things are being produced here and exported outside. If Christianity actually existed in people the society would have been more cleaner anyway

[MatrixOfDynamism]

@towerclimber37 your understanding whereever you got it from is very wrong indeed. You can keep it to yourself.

[MatrixOfDynamism]

@towerclimber37 All the filth that is being produced in your countries and exported outside (which is the country leading all mankind in production and consumption of pornopgraphy and this related to it)? If you have a brain read the Qur'an for real. Saying things like "all in accordance with the qur'an" makes you look very stupid indeed. Please get your educated.

Were so intolerant? What's this doing on USA?

[MatrixOfDynamism]

@towerclimber37 No one in the west at present follows core christian values that they did for hundreds of years unti all the revolutions like the protestant and scientific/rationality totally broke down the structure of it. Now the western countires are the source of the most anti biblical things like Interest based Economic system, culture full of fornication/adultery, pornograghy, a very Godless world over all. There are too few people holding on to christianity that also unlike the past!
